| 0:00.0 | Luis Miguel Eche Garai, aka LME, first of all, thank you for joining us during the summer of soccer, but we have to start with a very important question. |
| 0:09.0 | Who is the most handsome man between the Euros and Copa America America and why is it Marat Yakin? |
| 0:14.3 | This man is gorgeous. |
| 0:16.0 | He looks like he's going to sell me really fashionable glasses at your local mall, but he's a |
| 0:21.6 | handsome man. There's no doubt about it he can sell me anything all right that dude and that squad are the hottest team in the euros |
| 0:29.6 | period I'm with you man I'm with you 100% they're They're beautiful. They're a Swiss machine. I love it. |
| 0:39.6 | More importantly though, and we hate to do this right off the top, where does the loss to Panama rank for the U.S. men's national team in terms of disappointments, both recent and distant in your opinion? |
| 0:51.0 | Oh, man, I mean, listen, it's not as bad as a 2017 lost to Trinidad |

| 1:24.0 | We can talk about Timuea in a moment |
| 1:26.4 | and the bad decision that he made. |
| 1:29.6 | But it's also about the fact that Red Card or no Red Card it was just the fact that this is |
| 1:36.5 | Cop America a South American competition but they faced a familiar fall in Panama |
| 1:41.9 | somebody they know very well. They lost to them last |
| 1:45.3 | summer as well. So they know what they were facing. So I think coupled with that and |
| 1:51.5 | the fact that they fell into Panama's trap makes it to me |
| 1:56.3 | the second most disastrous loss definitely in modern history for the US MNT. |
| 2:00.6 | Yeah when you're facing off against Concord Caff |
